The names of some emacs faces include the suffix `-face', and some don't
(notably, the basic faces). [and isearch uses two faces, one with and
the other without!]
While it seems slightly redundant to have such a suffix, I don't really
mind, but is there are convention (if there is, it's obviously not being
followed very well) for face names?
